Not far from here Stands the west pier As darkness draws near Great lights they appear Fisherman lay your belt Under the waves Fires light themselves On the coast in dark caves Just then the irish sea spoke There's a reason the country is broke All your mirrors are filling with smoke The gale warning said We're hanging on by a thread All lights are flashing red From mizen to malin head Just then the irish sea spoke, There's a reason the country is broke All your mirrors are filling with smoke The seagull it flies In-land as it cries The waves are doubling in size Ireland close your eyes
